For those who are interested in the history of carom billiards, here is a first edition of Modern Billiards edited by Hugh Collender of BBC-Co. It is almost 140 years old. This is the lowest price I've seen. It has a lot of color plates of shots. It could stand a new cover, but looks to be in pretty good condition otherwise.
